A better question is do you eat the Buffet? After how many people before you walked by sneezed, coughed, maybe they spit while they talk over the food.... or what if you get too much and put some back for the next person... nice thought but yea.... I will order off the Menu. That is if I eat out at all.

So one time, we got done playing a pick-up game of football in the park. I was walking home pretty hungry when I came upon an untouched slice of pizza on a plate on top of a garbage can. Voila! No more hunger.

The floor it dropped to
What kind of food it was
Is it tasty enough to pick up off the floor and eat

If it's something non-sticky or dry (something that won't collect dirt/dust when it hits the floor), sure, that's fine. If it's something sticky, hell no. And if the floor is like, a carpet or something, forget it all together. Don't want to be eating dust and dog hair with my snack ;p

1. If its chips or something that comes in bulk, no.
2. If its sticky, like a honey bun, hell no.
3. Most anything else, 5 second rule.
4. If its something as amazing as gummy bears or sushi, it can be there 10 minutes and I'll still munch it down.

Usually our floors are quite clean. Sometimes when preparing food I drop something on the floor (chopped veggies etc) in which case I usually just rinse it under the tap and use it without a second thought. If it's prepared, it kind of depends on how sticky it is. If I drop, say, a piece of chocolate on the floor, I would eat it 99 times out of 100. If it's mashed potatoes, never.

Floor? Never. I like how people insinuate their floor is 'clean', so, yea, they'd do it.

W t h?

Well, clean is always relative. When we say we could eat stuff that's been on it, I'm sure we mean it's clean enough. How clean is your cutlery drawer? It's not like people scrub their kitchen drawers down with disinfectant every day, yet we all use the relatively clean cutlery from our relatively clean drawes, no?

Every time I run Heroic Deadmines. That little goblin punk keeps throwing stuff at me, some of which is delicious.

IRL - depends on the food and the location. If I drop a grape - it's a grape. It's got this nice protective covering on it, that washes easily. Rinse it off and put it in the bowl with the rest. If I drop a scoop of ice cream? No. Just no.
